This $199,503 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program will fund a large-scale, mixed-methods study to understand perceptions and use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in K-12 education. The one-year project will survey a nationally representative sample of parents, teachers, and youth to identify opportunities, risks, and supports needed for integrating AI-driven learning tools. The study will employ both...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.070 - Computer and Information Science and Engineering) to the University of Washington aims to solidify the foundations of ethics in generative artificial intelligence (AI). The $477,192 award, which runs from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2029, will develop methods for evaluating associations and biases in generative AI systems, assess the societal impact of generative AI, and analyze how it shapes human cognition and...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $199,994 Project Grant through the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program to The Leland Stanford Junior University to explore how high school youth, particularly those from historically marginalized communities, interact with and learn about generative AI and machine learning tools. Over a one-year period, the researchers will pilot classroom and extracurricular activities, collect quantitative and qualitative data, and analyze findings to develop...
This Project Grant award, valued at $204,582.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070). The grant supports a collaborative research project led by The Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) that aims to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to cultivate constructive "upstander" behaviors among teenagers on social media to combat cyberbullying. The project will...
This Project Grant award of $174,999 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program will support research at Seattle University to investigate the dynamics and quality of interactions between people and AI companion applications. The key objectives of this two-year project are to: 1) develop a taxonomy of user motivations, challenges, and values associated with AI companion apps through social media data analysis and user...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $832,449 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program to Cornell University. The grant, with a performance period of October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2027, will fund collaborative research to leverage conversational AI to cultivate constructive "upstander" behaviors among teens on social media to combat cyberbullying. The project aims to develop AI technologies, including ChatGPT-3 and AI...
This Project Grant award of $199,995 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) aims to develop a framework and computational tools to understand how students and teachers are engaging with generative AI tools such as ChatGPT in K-12 education. The key objectives are to collect social media data to identify topics, trends, and insights on the enthusiasm, concerns, and responsible/ethical use of AI tools by both students and teachers. The data analysis will...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program grant to Lehigh University, awarded on October 1, 2023 for $159,332.00, aims to develop a conversational AI system to guide adolescents on using social media to stand up against cyberbullying in a safe and effective manner. The project will first conduct empirical studies to identify successful strategies for collaborative upstanding, where teens encourage each other to confront bullies online....
This $348,757 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program supports research at the University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) to develop new methods for measuring social and emotional understanding in artificial intelligence (AI) language models, such as those used in AI chatbots. The research aims to define reasoning tasks and generate benchmark datasets to assess AI capabilities in areas like predicting...

The project will convene a Generative AI (GenAI) Working Group comprised of diverse school and district leaders to: Write, adapt, and share sample GenAI Acceptable Use Policies (AUPs) for a range of district contexts. Work with their...

This $337,397 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program will fund a study on how teenagers are using generative artificial intelligence (AI) agents and the impacts on their well-being. The research team at the University of Washington will first analyze chat histories and conduct interviews with teens to develop a nuanced understanding of their interactions with generative AI systems. The team will then consult with therapists to get an expert perspective on the benefits and risks of current generative AI systems, and design principles for systems more likely to improve teen well-being. In the final activity, the researchers will co-design new generative AI agents with teens and assess them through a comparative field study. The goal is to provide new scientific insights on teen use of generative AI and guidance for creating more useful and safer AI agents for young people.
